Okay so I made this recipe and as soon as we started eating my daughter told me I had to write the recipe down. She said it was the best scalloped potatoes I have ever made. So here is the recipe:

• 1/2 cup GF flour
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 1 onion chopped
• 3 cups GF chicken broth
• 8 potatoes sliced
• 1 cup ham diced
• salt and pepper to taste

Saute onion in olive oil. Once it softens add the flour and stir briskly. Stir until the flour develops a slightly brown color. This is the roux that will thicken our sauce while the potatoes bake. Spray a 9×13 pan with nonstick spray and layers the potatoes and ham. Pour chicken broth on top of the layers. Pour the roux on top of the potatoes and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for 30 minutes @ 350. Turn the temperature up to 400 and continue to cook another 15 minutes or until the top layer looks brown.  Let sit 5 minutes and serve hot!

I was cleaning out my chest freezer when I realized I had saved two ham bones. They were all wrapped up just waiting to be used.  I usually cook a ham and then save the bone for another meal. Well, it just happened to be really chilly outside so I decided I was going to make myself some creamy potato soup. Now this was a first for me but I make pea soup all of the time so I figured it couldn’t be that hard. It turned out perfect. Chunks of ham and potato, who could ask for more. I called this soup creamy potato but there isn’t any dairy in my recipe. The potatoes boiled down and made this wonderfully thick soup.

Potato Soup

• 2 ham bones
• 6 cups GF chicken stock
• 4 potatoes peeled and diced
• 1 large onion diced
• 1 carrot diced
• 1 tsp salt
• 6 twists on the pepper grind

1. Start by cooking your ham bone in the broth for at least 30 minutes.
2. Remove the bone from pan and cut up the left over meat into bite size pieces. Add ham pieces back into soup.
3. Add the rest of your ingredients and simmer for 20 minutes.
4. If soup seems too thin add 2 tbl of tapioca starch to thicken. Serve with a fresh piece of hot bread.
